High Expectations %Lftiiay ' peve Photo by S. Ray by Laura Bennett Surprise, surprise! Instead of con- tinuing in the dull and all too pre- dictable tradition of celebrating H the famous student holiday on a Wednesday, this year ' s social affairs com- mittee decided to throw everyone for a loop. April 25 was officially declared Marvelous Monday this year after at least one fun-day fake-out which had the entire campus fooled. The theme this year was High Expec- tations , and the empahsis of the day was success and getting the most out of life. The day was characterized by several un- precedented activities alongside the long- standing events such as faculty-student softball and tug-o ' -war. (Speaking of un- precedented, how about that great brunch? Did Pioneer do that?) This time students could be creative on an all-cam- pus videotape, try their hand at soccer, participate in game shows, or take a free balloon ride. The social affairs committee had a great year, and Marvelous Monday was the culmination of a lot of hard work. Many thanks to Ed Walter and Melanie Downs for their outstanding leadership of the committee this year. You did good guys! . 9 .-t; «». | Photo by S Ray Photo by J.

Photo by Tim Getter Once again the Pardee Rowdies had an enjoyable and properly mischievous term this school year. How- ever, the year began on a sad note; John and Debbie Houchens, head resi- dents for 1986-1987, departed with their newborn son to accept a preach- ing ministry at the nearby Oak Grove Christian Church. Even though the Houchens were sorely missed, Jeff and Terri Jackson, the newly appointed head residents, helped make a smooth transition by continuing to supervise the hall in the same easy going manner as the Houchens had initiated. The Rowdies began the year with their annual Freshman Water Slide , an initiatory rite into Milligan College equal in importance to matriculation. A few weeks later Pardee hall carried out its initiation for the newest members of the Pardee brotherhood, primarily for- By Sanjay Dharmapal mer Webb residents who had seen the light. Later the restless Rowdies tried and punished various individuals who had foolishly dared to slander the ven- erable residence and or its inhabi- tants. In spite of the ordinary nature of life in Pardee during the 87-88 term it is important to note that the administra- tion decreed that Pardee Hall would be torn down as soon as it was feasibly possible to do so. It remained to be seen if this bogus edict would be carried out and if such an unthinkable travesty could be averted. Photo by Tim Getter Is the Darren Goar studying? There must be a full moon.
